Benj Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Great touch from Connolly in between as well.
scotty Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Superb stuff, and the brum player didnt like having the plss taken, see the way he hacked AL in the ribs after he'd scythed him down?
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Sublime! Don't suppose you could do one of him making John Pantsil fall over his own legs?!
Benj Posted 20 September, 2011 Author Posted 20 September, 2011 Sublime! Don't suppose you could do one of him making John Pantsil fall over his own legs?! Not in any of the highlights I'm afraid.
The Cat Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Brilliant. Just wish I was gay or female so I could fancy him.
Appy Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Not in any of the highlights I'm afraid. It's in the Leicester highlights. HTH
for_heaven's_Saint Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Not in any of the highlights I'm afraid. You can still watch the Leicester highlights on saintsplayer and it's in the build-up to Harding's goal
Benj Posted 20 September, 2011 Author Posted 20 September, 2011 Got it, didn't realise there were extended highlights of the Leicester game, didn't see much point in putting up what was already there for the goal. Uplaoding now.
CHAZZA 92 Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Brilliant!! Pantsil has had a nightmare! Love it!!
Gemmel Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 I said at the game that Carr had a go at Lallana for taking the ****. Some sort of unwritten rule (That I have never understood) that youngsters should take the **** out of expereinced pros with nutmegs and the such like. Fantastic skill. We've got to just enjoy it for however long it lasts
Redbul Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 AL must have called it before he did it....sublime!!

Some sort of unwritten rule (That I have never understood) that youngsters should take the **** out of expereinced pros with nutmegs and the such like. Fantastic skill. We've got to just enjoy it for however long it lasts What a ridiculous unwritten rule if true. And anyway, what is Lallana supposed to do? Just give away possession? And anyway again, Lallana is an experienced pro IMO. Not like Stephen Carr but I would class him as closer to veteran or 'over the hill' maybe.
Ohio Saint Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 While we are talking videos, KD's great second half save against Brum was not his. His hand missed the ball and Frazer saved it with his knee.
CanadaSaint Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 (edited) I'm not sure from that replay that the second one was really a nutmeg but they were superb pieces of awareness and skill combined. And he's doing this to players who were reasonably comfortable in the Premier until Brum's late season collapse. Speaks volumes for Lallana's quality. To Gemmel's point about the 'unwritten code', though, I worry a little that someone is going to hurt him if he does that too often. Edited 20 September, 2011 by CanadaSaint Changed my mind after watching it again

To Gemmel's point about the 'unwritten code', though, I worry a little that someone is going to hurt him if he does that too often. The first definitely is, he nicks the ball off Car with one foot, moving it across his body to the other which he uses to poke it through his leg, not sure if he touched the 2nd but it was all about his movement which completely fooled the defender so he gets the credit for it.

Agreed, Benj. I corrected myself with an edit.
Kevo7 Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 Best bit about it was AL laughing after Carr had been booked. He got done again by De Ridder just after too
SO16_Saint Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 The best thing about this is that it appears that Carr got the ball in the tackle, and ended up getting booked. AL don't stop taking the ****....
dubai_phil Posted 20 September, 2011 Posted 20 September, 2011 The best thing about this is that it appears that Carr got the ball in the tackle, and ended up getting booked. AL don't stop taking the ****.... thought the same on first viewing but he follows through with his foot & kicks him in the stomach area while bringing him down, can see why the Ref booked him
svetigpung Posted 21 September, 2011 Posted 21 September, 2011 I get a similar feeling when watching Lallana playing as i did in the old days and LeTiss was strutting his stuff. Its pure entertainment and what puts bums on seats.
edprice1984 Posted 21 September, 2011 Posted 21 September, 2011 My Dad told me a story about Bolton in the early 1960's. Young lad playing for Preston (I think) nutmegged one of the Bolton fullbacks, Roy Hartle. Hartle wasn't too happy about this and the next time the young winger got the ball he ended up in the Burnden Park ditch... ...AL would have had his head kicked off!!!
Macey_J2 Posted 21 September, 2011 Posted 21 September, 2011 Remember that from the match, it was clear as day even from over at in block 40. Fantastic stuff, we need an updated compilation of lallanas skills on youtube

Fantastic stuff, we need an updated compilation of lallanas skills on youtube No we don't because it will attract more interest in him!! got to try and keep him quiet and under wraps for as long as possible!
david in sweden Posted 23 September, 2011 Posted 23 September, 2011 ....aren't there just a few memories of the best of MLT about Lallana? He seems to make chances out of nothing can change pace while other people take breath and can score with either foot or his head. His goal " celebrations " or sometimes.." lack of..." are also very MLT-ish. A sort of very laid-back ...it's only a goal " gestures. I have to ask myself. If Alex O-C was worth £12 million ..what price Adam ? (not that I would EVER want to sell him).

If Alex O-C was worth £12 million ..what price Adam ? (not that I would EVER want to sell him). What price to us or his true value as a player in the market place? I think there would be a huge difference between the two figures, which is why i can see him being here for a long time to come. He's infinitely more important to us than Oxo ever was
